For fruity and smooth red wines:
SafOEno™ FV 19 has the ability to mask the vegetal notes of certain wines while improving the sensations of fruitiness and smoothness. By bringing sweetness and roundness to wines, SafOEno™ FV 19 greatly improves the quality perception of the tannins while decreasing their astringency.

SafOEno™ FV 19 also produces a significant amount of fruity fermentative aromas ranging from red fruit (pomegranate, cherry) to black fruit (blackcurrant) and is the ideal choice for the production of fruity and velvety red wines crafted for a quick release to the market.

SafOEno™ FV 19 is a great tool for the vinification of elegant and smooth wines from varieties such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Grenache, Tempranillo, Nero d’Avola and Nebbiolo.
